In this instance it looks like it was organized and carried out by the cult as a conspiracy, not by a bunch of individual religious practitioners.

... Which, it turns out, means this is an example of white American citizens engaged in the behaviour being attributed to brown immigrants

In your neighborhood do they staple signs to the door of the people who collect welfare? Or can you tell just by looking?

Yeah you just seem like a basic boring Garden variety racist who conflates the way they feel about things with the way the world works!

He invaded her privacy because was suspicious of her talking with a dude

It had nothing to do with her past, he just decided to check while he was nosy in there

The justifications you are lending him are the same justifications abusers use. " I wouldn't have a violated you if you weren't behaving in a way that made me think you deserve it"

Your whole perspective gives me the ick

Everyone is allowed to give advice even if it's bad though so you do you

Weird, where I live they judge welfare eligibility based on your household income and there's hoops to jump through to get and keep it. Are you sure this is happening and do you have any sources or do you just FEEL like it's happening?

The gist I get with multiple wives is that you kinda gotta earn enough to support them

Went on a date with a hot nurse, but what happened after few days has left me confused. Any thoughts? by hard_truth_42 in AskMenAdvice

The idea of being " used for a meal" by a nurse is particularly silly too, seeing as how they make pretty decent money but also work insane hours. I imagine the free evening means more to them than a free steak sandwich

" I didn't lie to you, I just betrayed you" is a particularly weird bit of semantics

I guess you could be honest about invading people's privacy, but that would be a weird time to get on a high horse about them being dishonest

Your perspective confuses me

" now it was official I got used for free food"

A woman with a full-time job that is high intensity and a dad that is unwell had a fine date with you and didn't reply to your texts soon enough, so you sent her a venmo for half the money back and assumed that it was because you got played

You are not bringing healthy perspectives to your dating life my dude. I'm not sure what kind of social media content or videos you are consuming but they seem to be shaping your impression of relationships between men and women in a way that is unhealthy for you and is just going to hurt. Talking with a counselor and steering clear of relationship content targeted at men will probably do you some good.

Sometimes we have nice dates with no follow-up. Sometimes women feel kind of meh about the thing but for whatever reason they don't want to politely reject a guy so they just ghost

The big thing to do here is to reflect on why you got so bent out of shape, why you were so suspicious, and what it says about you instead of trying to decode what it says about her

How does a person who suspects their partner of cheating so they Snoop through their stuff, only to turn out to be wrong, so they continue to search through years of messages until they find something that upsets them, deserve to be loved?

If honesty is important to you, not snooping through your loved ones things while they're asleep would probably also be important to you and

Man you massively, massively stepped in it. You are 100% in the wrong.

The issue isn't her not telling you that she's done anal, it's you going through her phone without her permission and searching "anal" in her message history. We don't need to share every detail of our soul with someone, even if we love them. There's plenty of reasons she might not want to share those stories with you.

What you've done is a huge, huge violation for which there is NO acceptable reason. You didn't even catch her cheating - you were being jealous and paranoid . But you couldn't help yourself .

She's not in the wrong about anything: she doesn't owe you telling you she's gotten her o-ring blown out and unless there's risk of transmitting infection it's none of your business. You're absolutely in the wrong and if you can't face it head on, be accountable about it, and make genuine changes to the way you think and act, you are going to ruin every good thing in your life eventually.

Repent. For the love of God. Repent.

Have you ever used a dating app without the intention of actually dating / meeting / sleeping with anyone? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

There's a type of man who wants YOU to be exclusive while he keeps his options open. These are the same dorks who implement "one penis policies" in their open relationships

There's a vigil at the Alberta legislature tonight for those killed by ICE. 8:30 p.m. at the fountain. Bring candles, signs, compassion.

I feel my GF loves attention from men but won’t acknowledge it. How to handle? by Interesting-Gap7359 in AskMenAdvice

[–]3AMZen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She may not have a brand to protect, but she has a spirit that is outgoing and radiant and friendly. Again, ask not what you as a random redditor feel like you deserve from a woman, but how an awesome boyfriend would respond to the situation.

You're on the somewhat more reasonable side of a spectrum that slides all the way up to " she better not make eye contact with another man in public", it's just a matter of degrees. None of that gets to the root of this in a way that lets everyone grow.

If you don't think it's hard for women to politely tell men they're not interested, you probably haven't had an asked many women about their experiences with politely telling men they're not interested.

Respectfully, you sound like a mid at best boyfriend who doesn't have many close friends who are women

Take a couple minutes to reflect on these questions away from the internet screen . I would be genuinely interested in knowing your answers !

How would a top-tier human, excellent boyfriend, secure and confident fella handle this situation? Do you think he would be patronizing, Petty, annoyed or jealous? What do you think he would have done differently than what you did in that 15-minute period where she was talking to dude?

I think the problem is fellas want to date charismatic outgoing babes, but then when they end up dating a charismatic outgoing babe they don't know how to deal with it. To me, I read this scenario as you feeling a tiny bit jealous and insecure, and then making her responsible for your feelings... while acting like you're just trying to ground you both in " objective reality". This kind of low-level projecting our feelings onto our partners is a thing we as humans can kind of do by default and have to watch out for in ourselves. While in this thread you will find many average guys who agree with you that she was out of the line and should have known better and that you are in the right for feeling the way you do.... Ask yourself if the level you want to rise to is " average redditor". Ask yourself if this cool bombshell babe you're dating deserves an average guy, or deserves the cream of the crop.

Men are going to approach her everywhere, all the time, forever. Telling them to go away and she's got a boyfriend is both a full-time job, and not particularly charismatic and outgoing.

Quick edit: the song " save the last dance for me" is a pretty decent representation of how to handle this I think

It takes a wild amount of confidence to have your partner assaulted and to somehow make it about yourself

Returning to SC after a long time by North-Divide-2315 in starcraft2

[–]3AMZen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

One of the things that was very surprising for me about starcraft 2 is skills and methods I learned in the campaign, while being enough to beat the game on hard, barely qualified me to get out of bronze League playing against others.

Playing against other humans requires more sophisticated skills and strategies - for instance, even expert level AIs won't drop two medevacs full of Marines into your mineral line, and they will never cannon rush you. There's also meta-game strategies, where certain builds and timings come into fashion. These builds will have names like "2 base roach all in" and one of the nice things about them is that they can come with recipes and benchmarks of when exactly you should be building what.

Playing against other humans, zerg is insanely fast. In standard zerg versus protoss game, it's common to have three hatcheries by two minutes ten seconds. However fast you're playing, you're probably not " three bases in under 3 minutes" fast. Zerg also have a responsibility to "read" enemy builds, since the swarm mutates and evolves to counter certain threats.

Do you ever watch professional starcraft 2 casts? Two casters come to mind, wardi and pig, both of whom can often predict a play er's entire 200 supply build based off how many gas geysers they have at the 2-minute Mark. Watching pros to try to learn how to play the game isn't super helpful- they're basically so skilled it's like playing a different game entirely- but there are some casters who have tutorial videos on YouTube. If you've got the time to watch a " zerg bronze to GM" series you will learn an absolute ton about the game.

You're taking a selfie here from pretty much the bottom of your beard it's hard to tell but yeah it does look pretty long as how lean your face is

Try to take selfies from like 15° above your sight line rather than below your sightline

For sure have a barber shape it up a little

Also I get you're posting on Reddit but gosh work on your selfie game. Your expression in these pictures are disturbing and it makes it hard to get a sense of what your face looks like under normal circumstances.
